Your turn: Smoking has no place on SCSU campus

I write today in response to the May 1 Your Turn 'Smoking policy goes against teachings of SCSU professors.' The commentary states mainly that the behavior of smoking should be acceptable at the university because smokers as a group are part of the 'diversity' encouraged at St.

I was a bit surprised that no one in the comments or the opinion piece brought up the diametric opposition in function between a university intended to open opportunities and brighten futures and smoking intended to sustain nicotine addiction and line the pockets of the industry execs at the expense of darkening futures and--given the trends of today--limit opportunities.
